Although Wyoming is #14 overall, it is actually #12 in debt and spending, and #12 in credit rank as well. Unfortunately, Wyoming has the highest percentage of debt among median income, at #50. That means we owe more of our income to bills than most people in the country.

Wallethub grades each state, some higher than others. Massachusetts is #1 over all others, while their rank in personal savings is #18. Somehow the worst state, Mississippi, #51 ranks #17 in financial literacy.

Congratulations to our neighbor Colorado for being ranked #1 for the least foreclosures, yet Colorado’s high percentage of credit usage is ranked #48. Perhaps the Greenies are charging their way through Cherry Creek.
